Re: Hanging from other robots

Our winch was having problems during DC, and our elevator couldn't get out quite far enough to grab the bar on the tower, but we discovered that we were still able to hang off of other objects...primarily, other robots. However, we did not have time to test this theory, and we are now currently revising our hanger to do what it was originally intended for; hanging from the bar. Although, our elevating mechanism height is controlled by the operator, so we can still (theoretically) hang from another robot, given the opportunity.
